Operating Instructions

Standard Stapling

1. Place the papers to be stapled under the stapler head, aligning them as desired.
2. Press down firmly on the stapler's top cover until the staple penetrates the paper and clinches underneath.
3. Release the stapler.

Tacking (Bulletin Board Use)

1. Open the stapler 180 degrees by lifting the top cover until it lies flat.
2. Position the paper against the surface (e.g., bulletin board) where you wish to tack it.
3. Press the stapler down, allowing the staple to penetrate the paper and the surface. The staple will not clinch, allowing for easy removal from the surface.

Using the Ergonomic Staple Remover

1. Position the staple remover's metal tip underneath one side of the staple.
2. Gently push the remover forward, sliding the tip under the staple.
3. Lift the remover upwards to dislodge the staple. The push-style design minimizes paper tearing.
